Nothing new

This autumn has been pretty lousy on patch so far this year, to such an extent that I'm considering going off patch to see some decent birds! There seems to be plenty of Osprey in North Devon...
I tried for some better shots of the Curlew Sandpiper at Black Hole Marsh earlier on in the week but it was still frustratingly distant. I won't bother posting any pics. Here's another Wheatear pic though, I stopped down to f/9.0 to make sure that the whole lot was properly in focus (it annoys me when I focus on the head and get an eye in focus but the tip of the beak slightly blurred. Distance was approximately 10 feet):

About Me

I'm 26 and have had a keen interest in wildlife since before my teenage years. I love the thrill of rarity finding and have a great interest in my local area; particularly the River Coly & River Axe. Away from birding, I'm a Company Exec Director and also a Business Owner.
